Soldier or Civilian [Part 2]: Power, Authority & Doctrine (Fri 31 07 2026)
MATTERS ADDRESSED What differentiates a soldier from a civilian? What does this reveal about the way a Christian should live? Why does God want His people to discuss His Word continually, and what happens when His Word is confined only to church gatherings? What does it take to become an “Oak of Righteousness,”? What kind of life does God expect from the person He establishes? The major turn the church took that plunged her into darkness, and how that decision has affected her growth In what instance can questioning a doctrine actually be a noble pursuit? How is this different from simply challenging authority? Can spiritual gifting excuse a person's shortcomings, or are there things that gifting can never compensate for? Where does true spiritual authority come from, and what determines whether a person can legitimately exercise it? What is Christian authority actually meant to accomplish? Why do people continue to fall into temptation even when they know what is right?
